LOS ALAMOS NATIONAL LABORATORY: Los Alamos National Laboratory and New Mexico State University sign agreement for joint appointments

Contract07

Los Alamos National Laboratory issued the following announcement on Nov. 10. 

Los Alamos National Laboratory Director Thom Mason and Chancellor Dan Arvizu of New Mexico State University (NMSU) today announced the signing of a new institutional agreement to enable joint appointments. 

“The Laboratory is pleased to work with partners like NMSU to build scientific and engineering collaborations that mutually benefit both institutions,” said Director Thom Mason. “The exchange of NMSU faculty and Laboratory staff builds enduring collaborations and workforce pipelines.”

“The University is very excited to move forward with this collaboration with the Laboratory,” said NMSU Chancellor Dan Arvizu. “We’re glad to give our faculty a new pathway for working with the outstanding scientific and engineering staff at Los Alamos.” 

The intent of joint appointments between Los Alamos and NMSU is to facilitate retention, recognition, and recruitment of science and engineering staff and faculty. The program strives to build and enhance a joint collaborative culture at partner institutions by establishing reciprocal benefits, rights, privileges, and obligations. A master institutional agreement, established at the highest institutional levels, allows flexibility by working with established and innovative mechanisms of collaboration. Several of the appointments are about to be set in place, in the fields of computer science, computer engineering and mechanical engineering.

Nominees for joint appointments require endorsement by their Associate Lab Director or Dean.
